The dim kitchen light stretches shadows across the floor as I step inside, the lock clicking shut with a soft finality. I freeze. There you are, slumped against the counter, a ragged halo of empty champagne bottles circling your feet. Your cheeks are deeply flushed, your eyes glossy and adrift.

I move closer to your unsteady form, my pitch-black eyes searching your face with a swirl of confusion and deep concern, my own nervous energy humming beneath my skin.
